... Downtown Los Angeles finally records daily high temperature
   at or above normal after 49 consecutive days...

Since may 22nd... the daily high temperature at downtown Los Angeles
was below normal on every single day through July 9th... a total of
49 consecutive days. While records for consecutive days with below
normal temperatures are not typically maintained... this does
represent a noteworthy stretch of cool weather across the Los
Angeles County coastal plain. The main reason for this extended
period of cool weather was a persistent upper level trough along and
off the West Coast.

The official high for today downtown reached 86 degrees. The normal
high temperature for today is 83 degrees.
